1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundOlder or frail patients are often underrepresented in clinical trials for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC). We here assessed the efficacy and safety of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)-leucovorin plus bevacizumab in such patients.

methodsThe study (OGSG 0802) was designed as a single-arm, open-label, multicenter phase II trial. Eligible patients had mCRC and at least one of the following: an age of ≥ 65 years, an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 1 or 2, a serum albumin level of ≤ 3.5 g/dL, incompatibility with oxaliplatin or irinotecan, and a history of abdominal or pelvic radiotherapy. Patients received 5-FU (600 mg/m

resultsForty-one patients were enrolled and eligible. Median age was 76 years (range 56-90 years), and 51% of patients had a performance status of 0. The ORR was 36.6% [95% confidence interval (CI) 22.1-53.1%], median PFS was 9.4 months (95% CI 7.4-17.7 months), and median OS was 24.0 months (95% CI 19.9 months-not reached). The most common treatment-related adverse events of grade ≥ 3 were neutropenia (24%), anorexia (10%), leukopenia (7%), and mucositis/stomatitis (7%). There were no treatment-related deaths.

conclusionWeekly 5-FU-leucovorin with biweekly bevacizumab may be a tolerable and effective treatment option for older or frail patients with mCRC.
